Is the motherboard shorted?

Hi.

My G3 3579 doesn’t turn on nor shows signs of life at all. It doesn’t even turn on the leds when the AC adapter is plugged in.

I don’t know exactly what happened, but my guess is that the motherboard shorted / fried because I opened the laptop to clean the fans, and completely removed several pieces until I realized I forgotten to FIRST unplug the battery.

When I tried to turn it on after I reassembly it, it did turned on but the Dell logo didn’t show up. Fans, keyboard and lights went all on, then turned off again in like 1 sec. I tried several times to turn it on, until it completely stopped to show signs of life and now it is as I first mentioned: not even turns led on when the AC adapter is plugged in.

What tests should I run? What’s your guess, can this be solved?
